western governments funding Israel?

What western governments exactly? Isn't Israel capable of funding itself through its own economy?

America hands out military aid to Israel. Coupons that can be redeemed for weapons with American manufacturers. It’s a subsidy to Israel and to American military primes. This comes to billions each year.

That’s one government though. I can’t think of any other western government funding Israel in a similar way.
